Rapid scientific and technological advances have made possible therecovery of petroleumdepositsfromthecontinentalmargins andthe harvesting of mineral resources from the deepest portions of the seabed. These and other capabilities have coincided withincreases in world population and shortages of food andraw materials, resulting in new pressures on whatwere once imagined to be the "infinite" resources of the seas. The threatened extinction ofcertain species of fish and marinr mammals, and the increasing levels of marine pollution are prime examples. lo1972, in response to the growing concern with this long- neglected 70 percent of the earth's surface, the Johns Hopkins Sehool of Advanced International Studies institutedits Ocean Policy Project, with initial funding from the National Science Foundati(1n (currently under Grant No. GI 39643.) Since thattime the Project has conducted research into the broadrange of policy- relevant ocean issues and, through its graduate seminar,trained dozens of students from as many countries in the understanding and assessment of national and internationalocean policies. Because ocean policy encompasses such a diversity of issues economic. political,legal, military, commercial, scientific and ecologicalthe Project has employedan interdisciplinary ap- proach both in its organizationam. its activities. As Principal Investigator, Robert E. Osgood provides the foreign policy and military perspectives, as well as prior experience withocean mat ters as a senior staff member of the National Security Council in 1969-70. Ann L. Hollick, currently an advisor to the U.S. delegation to the LON of the Sea Conference, combines her scholarship in international law and organization witha thorough grounding in the U.S. decisionmaking process and close observation ofthe international negotiations. Charles S. Pearson has coupled the ecologist's concern with that of an international economist in his approach to marine environmental problems. James C.Orr has focused on resource issues of the continental shelf and seabed. Richard C. Raymond, in addition to administrative responsibilities for the Project, has concentrated on dispute settlement proposalsin the context c. law of the sea. Barbara S. Bowersox collectsand maintains the specialized holdings of the Project research library, and rdltPcujeLt publications. Throughout the existence of the Project. senior staft members have been ably assisted by a number Qraduate research assistants. many of whom have gone On to el,rs in ()Lean related fields.

A word or kvo also about the scope of this particular effortboth as to content and intent. Because the UN Conference on Lawof the Sea is of immediate concern to policymakers and ocean interest groups. the content of this study has been dictaml largelyby the issues currently under debate in that forum, and the status of :he negotiations as of this writing. Each chapter takes up a specific issue. analvzey its importance to the United States, discusses its evolution in the intOrnational negotiating process, and considers the various policy options in the context of the treaty-making exercise. The, criteriafor evaluating policy options are:(1) American national self-interest, enlightened by a due respect for international (mler, welfare, and equity; (2) effectiveness and flexibility of means to achieve ends related to this goal;(3) economic efficiency;(-I)domestic and international political feasihility: and (5) the time frame for implementation. The intent of this study, however, is somewhat broader. Despite the current nature of much of the subject matter, it is hoped that the reader will he equally at teatiye to the long range implications of the material presented here. One international conference does not a nationaloceanpolicy make. Regardless of the outcome of INCLOS. the world ocean is destined to become an increasingly complex and critical arena in which a multiplicity of functions undreamedof by (lrotius, Seldenor even Pardomust be actommoda toilinan orderlyfashion.ltbecomes essential, therefore, to look beyond the expedients of the current situation to a system of ocean management designed to deal with the continuing iv technological innovations and changing national andinternational priorities that are certain to dictate futureocean relations.

I ‘&VE so often, of late, been called on for copies of some of these productions, -no longer to be found in a separate or convenient form,-that I have ventured to think that they might prove an acceptable contribution to our Centennial Literature. They deal with two, certainly, of the greatest figures of the period we are engaged in commemorating; and BOWDOIN,I am persuaded, will be’ considered no un­ worthy associate of WASHINGTONand FRANKLINin such a publication. The Monument to Washington, to which the first pro­ duction relates, is still unfinished. It may be interesting to recall the fact that the Oration, on the laying of its corner-stone, was to have been delivered by JOHNQUINCY ADAMS. He died a few months before the occasion, and it was as Speaker of the House of Representatives of the United States, of which he had long been the most illus­ trious member, that I was called on to supply his place.

    Boats Built at Toledo, Ohio Including Monroe, Michigan A Comprehensive Listing of the Vessels Built from Schooners to Steamers from 1810 to the Present Written and Compiled by: Matthew J. Weisman and Paula Shorf National Museum of the Great Lakes 1701 Front Street, Toledo, Ohio 43605 Welcome, The Great Lakes are not only the most important natural resource in the world, they represent thousands of years of history. The lakes have dramatically impacted the social, economic and political history of the North American continent. The National Museum of the Great Lakes tells the incredible story of our Great Lakes through over 300 genuine artifacts, a number of powerful audiovisual displays and 40 hands-on interactive exhibits including the Col. James M. Schoonmaker Museum Ship. The tales told here span hundreds of years, from the fur traders in the 1600s to the Underground Railroad operators in the 1800s, the rum runners in the 1900s, to the sailors on the thousand-footers sailing today. The theme of the Great Lakes as a Powerful Force runs through all of these stories and will create a lifelong interest in all who visit from 5 – 95 years old. Toledo and the surrounding area are full of early American History and great places to visit. The Battle of Fallen Timbers, the War of 1812, Fort Meigs and the early shipbuilding cities of Perrysburg and Maumee promise to please those who have an interest in local history. A visit to the world-class Toledo Art Museum, the fine dining along the river, with brew pubs and the world famous Tony Packo’s restaurant, will make for a great visit.

  • SEAFARING WOMEN: an Investigation of Material Culture for Potential Archaeological Diagnostics of Women on Nineteenth-Century Sailing Ships
    SEAFARING WOMEN: An Investigation of Material Culture for Potential Archaeological Diagnostics of Women on Nineteenth-Century Sailing Ships by R. Laurel Seaborn April, 2014 Director of Thesis/Dissertation: Dr. Lynn Harris Major Department: Department of History, Program in Maritime Studies ABSTRACT During the 19th century, women went to sea on sailing ships. Wives and family accompanied captains on their voyages from New England. They wrote journals and letters that detailed their life on board, adventures in foreign ports, and feelings of separation from family left behind. Although the women kept separate from the sailors as class and social status dictated, they contributed as nannies, nurses and navigators when required. Examination of the historical documents, ship cabin plans, and photos of those interiors, as well as looking at surviving ships, such as the whaleship Charles W. Morgan, provided evidence of the objects women brought and used on board. The investigation from a gendered perspective of the extant material culture, and shipwreck site reports laid the groundwork for finding potential archaeological diagnostics of women living on board.
